If all it takes is money, a bribe, a favor all we have is a banana republic. The undoing of the America experiment is Greed, lust, unregulated power and for responsible people to compromise, and look away, gold in to dust and with a stiff breeze it’s gone.

Trump wants to make sure it’s as easy as possible for his friend Putin to bomb apartment buildings and kill children. He’s not just the worst president in history, he’s the most evil person to ever serve at the highest level of government. Vote out his weak Republican enablers.

Sen. Slotkin: “I'm not going to be intimidated out of standing up for the rule of law.” Caption: For nearly a year, Trump has targeted Senator Slotkin for one reason: she defended the Constitution & called out his corruption.

By now you have seen the pictures of Netinyahoo destroying a nation - what is left is rubble and tents. Guess who is doing the same thing Trump and his gold smattering cronies. They want all the best places, our parks, our farms, our beach fronts, our clean air and water. Stop the reds end the war

Imagine what would happen if that money was funneled into making citizens lives better. They might actually get votes and we might actually not go broke trying to pay for housing and healthcare.

Remember when Obama, giving his State of the Union Address, cited Citizens United as a grave error and Alito broke tradition, shook his head and said “No. You’re wrong.”? Alito was wrong. He’s been wrong about a lot of things. He’s no judge. He’s a zealot blinded by ideology.

The IDF detained congressional candidate Lander and his group simply for being part of the olive harvest in the West Bank. Instead of protecting Palestinians from the violent marauding Israeli settler groups, this is how they operate. It’s unacceptable.

Brad Lander@bradlander.bsky.social

I’ve been released from IDF custody with a “warning,” apparently because of my public profile (I told them I wasn’t even a congressmember yet, just a nominee). But several dozen rabbis & participants harvesting olives with me are still in detention.

Jewish tradition calls on us to pursue justice. Today, American rabbis and advocates lived out those values by helping Palestinian farmers harvest their olives. Israeli authorities detained them, including congressional candidate @bradlander.bsky.social. 1/3
